Remind me to tell you some time why the IIS team is so evil clever. It' cool to see the first steps of a master plan to make things awesome start to come to fruition. I've said over and over that IIS7 is rocking sweet and once you start using it...

I'm not yet clear what I did, but I'm blogging it so it can be found if someone else has this issue. For whatever reason, last week both of my Vista 64-bit machines suddenly stopped being able to start IIS (Internet Information Server). The service just...

Last year I noticed that there were 11 ways to get to my blog. Literally 11 different URLs and it wasn't helping me my ranking in the search engines. I wrote about this in detail and how I used ISAPI_Rewrite to fix it up . Fast forward to this year and...

There's a renewed focus, in my opinion, to make things easier to find around The Big Blue Monster . I'm working with a bunch of folks on a more official version of http://www.smallestdotnet and some changes around making the .NET Framework easier to find...

My blog was down a few days ago. I've had downtime in the minutes over the last few years, but as far as I recall, it's never been down for any significant time. Keyvan noticed that a bunch of us were attacked. Phil Haack was also, ahem, haacked. I host...

I really like the IIS7 team at Microsoft. They're cool people, but the what I like is that IIS7 is so freaking modular (I've talked about this at conferences before when showing how to use PHP and Ruby under IIS7 using FastCGI ) that the group keeps bringing...

I've blogged before about 32-bit vs. 64-bit .NET under IIS and how different Framework-bitnesses need different Application Pools (AppPools). Someone asked how you find out what AppPools are on a machine and how do you find out which ones are 32-bit?...

A question that comes up a lot is this: How do I tell my IIS Application or Virtual Directory to use ASP.NET 3.5 rather than ASP.NET 2.0? Folks often go into the IIS6 or IIS7 manager and setup an AppPool and see a properties dialog like this, and when...

ScottGu blogged about the IIS 7.0 Bit Rate Throttling Module being released. Since IIS 7.0 is totally modular (finally!) I think you'll see lots of increasingly useful modules coming out from the team. I know a couple of cool people over there so I get...

Months ago, even before I started at Microsoft , I got to talk to some very nice people about a project they were calling AdminX . After I told them that that was very possibly the worst name they could possibly give it (and they took part that very well...

Hello Dear Reader. I have been working with IIS7 for a while and I'm convinced that it's the cat's pajamas [1] I started playing with IIS7 and noticed that it had FastCGI support. This means I could plug in PHP or maybe Perl or even Ruby into IIS7. This...
